The card seems to work in 9; I have an 18 G drive (an ST318203LW) formatted and mounted (although the icon is ATTO, rather than the icon usually associated with Drive Setup - in this case, DS 2.0.7). The drive is LVD, but I've set it up as single-ended which, in theory, should allow it to be used, albeit at slower speeds. ExpressPro-Tools 2.8.2 seems to see the card and drive properly in 9.
The machine is a beige G3 tower, with rev. 2 ROM, and 192 M of RAM, running Panther (10.3.4). The drive doesn't show up in Disk Utility, nor does the card appear in X's System Profiler, neither as a PCI card, nor under the SCSI sub-head.
Java has been updated to 1.4.2, in order to run the ATTO Configuration Tool (2.6.1), presumed necessary to update the firmware to use the card in X. When I run it, it sees the card (ids it as an SC, pci1077,1020), but it doesn't see what I think is the driver for it (System/Library/Extensions/ATTOExpressPCIPlus.kext) i.e 'driver unknown, no driver loaded'. Somehow pci1077,1020 doesn't seem right either, since firmware flash files I've downloaded from attotech suggest that the vendor id should be 117. Is 1077 specific to Sun?
The configuration tool reports "An error occurred retrieving flash info" when I attempt to flash the card, possibly because the driver needs to be recognized first...
What to do?
